5 absolutelly free 30 day fitness challenge ideas - From beginner Workouts to Advanced
It’s spring right now and yesterday I went on my first jog in ever.
It was bad.
Either I am getting old or my body has started rusting during winter and Covid.
If not for my red face I am sure my breathing has let everyone know that I am not doing this regularly. PS. Am I the only one feeling awkward jogging?
Alas after winter I want to get somewhat in form again.

30-Day Ab Challenge
My first 30 day fitness challenge idea was the 30 Day Ab challenge by mycrazygoodlife.com. It’s pretty simple and doesn’t take a lot of time. Which is important since winter season is crazy busy. The workout is perfect for beginners alas me … I hope. And the best part you can do it at home.
For this work out you’ll only need: A yoga mat, and some workout clothes.
Since I think it’s a bit too simple, I think I will try to add 1 round every second day. Am I being crazy? Maybe since I am currently not really working out. So, by day 30 it would be 16 Rounds? I’d also do 50 seconds exercise and rest 10 seconds. Ok maybe this is crazy. 96 Minutes by day 30 ? That’s a full-length movie 😮
Here is the full workout plan:
Day | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 |
Rounds | 2 | 2 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 6 | 6 | 7 | 7 | 8 | 8 | 9 |
Minutes | 12 | 12 | 18 | 18 | 24 | 24 | 30 | 30 | 36 | 36 | 42 | 42 | 48 | 48 | 54 |
Day | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 |
Rounds | 9 | 10 | 10 | 11 | 11 | 12 | 12 | 13 | 13 | 14 | 14 | 15 | 15 | 16 | 16 |
Minutes | 54 | 60 | 60 | 66 | 66 | 72 | 72 | 78 | 78 | 84 | 84 | 90 | 90 | 96 | 96 |
So, basically, this workout consists of 6 moves:
I’ve linked the proper form. Don’t wanna pull anything lol. Wonder if by the end of the 30 days my abs look any different. 30 days are not really a long time.
30-Day Yoga Challenge By Yoga With Adriene
I’ve done this before and absolutely loved it! Thought I only managed till day 25. Consistency… Failed. If you are someone who prefers videos this one is for you! Adrienne has such positive and calm vibes.
For this Challenge you will basically need a mat and some sports clothes as well. After the 30 days you’ll be more flexible and have a lot more core strength. Check out her 30 days of Yoga by clicking the picture below:
30-Day Walking Challenge
You aren’t really into working out and you have no equipment? No worries. Here is a 30-day walking challenge. Who said staying healthy means you have to work out all the time right? A few steps a day will already make you stronger.
For this challenge you will need: Steptracker Watch or an App and some Walking Shoes
30 Day Splits Challenge
Another Challenge you can do at home and which I would love to try is Blogilates 30 Days Split Challenge for more flexibility. Flexibility and stretching challenges work wonders for back pain. Thought I did some before and I think for someone who hasn’t done flexibly training in advance it’s almost impossible to manage a full split within 30 days. Let’s try and prove me wrong. Check out Blogialtes Blogpost
30 Day Squat Challenge:
Another exercise challenge idea I found on Pinterest is this 30-day squats challenge. Look at that 175 squats on day 30! I already feel my legs burning :’) Or maybe by that time my legs will be numb.
